 FightingArts.com - Keppan: The Blood Oath - Part 2
In the Katori-ryu, this oath is taken under threat of retaliation by Marishiten-son, the "Goddess of the Pole Star," who is also a patron deity of many branches of the Shinkage ryu.
The oath taken by a student of a martial ryu during the classical period in Japan, then, was a matter, in some significant ways, of putting his soul on the line.
But, aside from the problems encountered in thousands of would-be karateka or aikidoka engaging in do-it-yourself phlebotomies-the blood oath of the koryu was indicative of an approach to teaching and learning the classical martial arts that differs distinctly from the manner in which the martial Ways are propagated now.

 FightingArts.com - Keppan: The Blood Oath - Part 1
Part 2 delves deeper into the nature of this commitment while also comparing the nature of warrior training in feudal Japan to that of today’s new martial arts such as judo, aikido, karate, and kendo within which such allegiances are no longer practical.
Before beginning his training, however, it was common for this student to be required to sign an oath of allegiance to the ryu.
In order to understand just how serious these oaths were, one must understand first that nearly all martial ryu had deep and strong connections with their own, particular deities, mostly Buddhist, some of Shinto origin.
